Ahem; MD has to me the most viable approach:

type:	local		toll

7D	NFG		NFG
10D	OK		NFG
11D	OK		OK


where the defn of toll is "by the minute". 

Face it, 7D is dead; and even if overlays had not arrived,
cell phones would have killed it. Once you learn to think 10D,
it's trivial.

But there are some people who are too stubborn and pigheaded^Y^Y^Y
feel differently about this issue...

That said; this is getting OT for NANOG..
